Kunin na yung pera! Calida open to compromise deal with Marcoses than let cases drag on

Solicitor General Jose Calida has expressed openness in arriving at a compromise deal with the family of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos regarding their ill-gotten wealth.

In an interview over CNN Philippines’ “The Source” Thursday (January 11), Calida said he will consider a “fair” compromise agreement with the Marcoses.

“Well, lawyers who have been practicing for quite some time would rather have a compromise than have a litigation that will run for several decades as what happened in the PCGG (Presidential Commission on Good Government),” he said.

“If there’s a fair compromise agreement and there are no laws that are broken, we will consider that. Because it’s better to have the cake rather than lose it,” Calida added.
